Pros

The donjoy ultrasling iii is a must have. It is the sling i was sent home in after surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff. Great for shoulder surgery post-op.

This sling is what you need to keep your arm immobile. The padding that goes under your arm for extra stability is removable. And my arm feels safely, securely supported.



Cons

Too bulky & itchy. The welts, hives and incessant itching it causes is unbearable. The material is cheap and makes my skin itch and break out in hives.

Sling not properly adjusted by nurse right after surgery, experienced a major wrist strain. This cuts off circulation to the forearm and is making a sore on my elbow. After surgery it’s the most uncomfortable contraption ever to have to wear on a tend...  Read More

If you try to adjust it, it flails all over the place. The buckles that clixk together come apart. All velcro connections have pokey and harsh sides.

The support pillow is huge and awkwardly shaped. Cumbersome pillow has no give and constantly digs into arm. Constantly have to readjust length of sling and pillow attachment.

    The sling i was sent home in was very flimsy in holding my arm even though it had the bolster pillow behind it

    The sling let my arm move loosely and made both my bicep and forearm hurt

    The neoprene arm sling is so much more supportive and has velcro straps to hold the sling closer over my arm

    We chose to take it off for the time being

    The standard sling they give you is adequate only for a couple weeks
